A medical emergency team (MET) or ‘Crash Team’ can be contacted on 2222 in an emergency in an acute hospital in the United Kingdom. This team comprises selected on‐call clinicians normally from the on‐call medical team, intensive care teams and critical care outreach teams who respond when called to a medical emergency. The Crash Team is also summoned by calling 2222 and is normally the same clinicians from the MET, although other staff such as resuscitation officers and anaesthetists may also respond to a crash call.
